Chapter 56
Ke Xingzhi was assigned to Xi Siling's group, and he looked very happy.
"Captain Si Ling, you look so noble, who would have thought you were from the Institute of Supernatural Powers?"
The Institute of Supernatural Powers gave Xi Siling an invitation to the auction. All he had to do was to package his identity and ensure that it would not be discovered at least from the beginning.
So now Xi Siling has become the general manager of the listed company, and Ke Xingzhi is his assistant.
Well, it’s still Xiaoxing.
"Although this is your first mission like this, you don't need me to tell you what to do. I've also given you etiquette and other things. Do you understand?"
Ke Xingzhi is the first 'apprentice' that Xi Siling took in after he joined the Institute of Supernatural Powers and developed the skills for a period of time. This kid is excellent in all aspects, but his personality seems a little dull.
He is not suitable to be an undercover agent, but he is very suitable to be an excellent special police officer.
"Yes, Commander Si Ling! I mean... the department head!"
Ke Xingzhi looks very excited. All young people want to handle big and serious cases, not for the sake of gaining merit, but for upholding justice. This is a rare opportunity and of course they have to seize it.
Xi Siling couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it’s great to be young.
After putting away the invitation, the two set off to the venue of the auction.
Shengjing is the capital. In addition to government offices, the central area is full of various cultural and entertainment venues. This is where the "concept of entertainment to death" is truly brought to the extreme. It is obvious whether you belong to this circle or not when you walk among them.
However, Xi Siling can be considered an "old fox". With her elegant temperament, pretty face and good taste in clothes, it is easy for her to blend in.
As for Kexing...
"This is the new assistant introduced by our housekeeper. He's young, so let's show him the world."
Xi Siling calmly spoke to those who came up to talk.
This Holy Capital is full of hidden talents. Even those who often mingle in this world of fame and fortune dare not say that they know everyone, so don't offend anyone easily, otherwise you will die without knowing how.
Ke Xingzhi followed the etiquette that Xi Siling had taught him before coming here perfectly, "Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Xi."
The kid had basically never let him down, even in this scenario.
After exchanging pleasantries in the waiting hall, Ke Xingzhi used the excuse of going to the bathroom to get a clear idea of the layout and direction of the hall.
When I came back, I saw Xi Siling studying the auction item introductions sent by the organizer.
Unlike conventional auctions, this auction is held on an invitation basis, meaning that only those who arrive after being invited are eligible to know what the items are, thereby avoiding detection or even sabotage by people with ulterior motives.
This also includes the departments responsible for supervision.
"Head, I'm back."
Commander Si Ling was clearly smiling, so why did he feel a little dangerous?
Ke Xingzhi was a little confused until Xi Siling handed him the introduction booklet.
"Just take a look."
Was this a warning to him not to reveal any flaws? Could there be something inside this item?
Opening the auction item brochure, the first part contains normal items, such as pearls, gems, cultural relics, etc., and then there are more precious items with special engravings.
But as he continued to flip through the pages, Ke Xingzhi couldn't help but frown.
Retain limbs, eyes, ears, or even the entire corpse with supernatural powers.
Finally, people appeared.
A handsome boy and a beautiful girl.
Girl with animal ears and strange limbs.
This is absolutely prohibited!
Ke Xingzhi finally understood Xi Siling's subtle reaction just now. He suppressed his anger, looked up at Commander Siling, hoping that he could give him some instructions.
Xi Siling shook his head calmly, telling him not to act rashly.
Although he was well aware of the tricks in this auction and knew that it was not real, he was still angry.
Because he knew very well that there was something almost like "original sin" in this "lot".
Just at this time, the staff of the organizer asked everyone to move to the auction venue.
So the two of them walked inside.
Unfortunately, Ke Xingzhi seemed to have bumped into someone.
"You kid, you're looking for trouble, right?"
The man looked very 'strong', but was a head shorter than Ke Xingzhi. He really didn't bump into him on purpose.
"I'm sorry, I didn't see the road."
Of course, it was not a good time to create trouble, so Ke Xingzhi chose to apologize proactively.
"What's wrong."
The man with long dark blond hair a little further ahead turned around, and there seemed to be endless malice flowing in his bloodshot eyes.
"This kid has no eyes, big brother..."
"Let's go, don't cause trouble here."
"Yes!" The short man glared at Ke Xingyi, "You're lucky, kid."
Xi Siling recognized it at the first sight. It was Ye wine, or, it should be called Gin wine now.
There is also his follower Armand, although I don’t know what his name is now.
It's a headache. Although the name of the organization has been changed, the image of the members of this villain organization has not changed. They are different from Minister Xiong Conghai. They are not "public figures". How could a student of secret texts like him know them?
But changing their image requires willpower, so Xi Siling can only hope that no one will discover the problem before he gets the willpower in the next comic update.
"Let's go, Xiaoxing."
"yes."
This is not a good place to talk. There are too many people and too many eyes. It’s better to wait until we settle down before making any arrangements.
The venue provided by the organizer is very luxurious. Each guest has an exclusive box. If there are any items you like, you can just hold up a sign by the window.
The waiter led them to leave the box after serving them good tea, fruits, snacks, etc.
But this box is not completely safe. Cameras hidden in the dark are recording their every move.
Fortunately, Xi Siling knew clearly where the camera was.
"Xiaoxing, come and peel an apple for me."
Ke Xingzhi was stunned for a moment, but immediately reacted and approached Xi Siling.
His position just happened to block the front half of Xi Siling's body. Ke Xingzhi saw Xi Siling taking photos of all the illegal items at the speed of light. Only then did he realize what Commander Siling was doing.
So he took the opportunity to cover Xi Siling more tightly while peeling the apple.
Xi Siling transmitted the evidence back through the special network of the Institute of Superpowers. Their target was the Black Organization, but they could not just leave the victims here alone.
——
"This kid is so skilled. I think he's even better than me."
The CEO exclaimed in surprise, thinking that even a real CEO might not be able to be as comprehensive as him.
He is extremely sophisticated in leading his subordinates, observing the environment, and correctly judging situations.
When he encountered victims who were not within the scope of his mission, he did not choose to stand by and watch or fight alone, but sought help and exchanged information with the outside world in a timely manner.
"This kid's name is Si Ling, I like him so much. Minister Xiong, this is the young man you've always dreamed of!"
The executive department is well-known for its heavy workload and tight timelines. Key people cannot be selected casually. Filling the gaps will only waste more of everyone's time. This kid is truly gifted.
"That's right, if we don't seize the opportunity now, when will we? Minister Xiong!"
Originally they were casting a wide net, but now several executive directors are eyeing this one person, and they can't wait to get him to their executive departments right away.
How could Xiong Conghai not be tempted, but he still calmly suppressed a few people.
"Watch quietly, we'll see what this kid can do."
He still didn't know what Xi Siling's special ability was, so it was not a good idea to make any rash conclusions about whether it was appropriate or not.
Most of the executive officers were members of Xiong Conghai's team when he was the executive minister, so they knew the minister's temper very well.
This reaction is not dissatisfaction at all, it is extremely satisfied.
In the scenario event, after Xiong Conghai received the information sent by Xi Siling, he immediately began to organize members to make temporary arrest arrangements.
This kind of thing has to be caught in the act. By the time the auction is over and the items have been taken away, it will be too late.
Xi Siling put away his phone, took the fruit plate that Ke Xingzhi had cut, and looked calmly at the ongoing auction below.
Now these precious jewels are just side dishes used to liven up the atmosphere.
Looking closely, it was a pink mermaid bead.
"The guests in Box 3 paid 400,000, 400,000 once, 400,000 twice... The guests in Box 5 paid 410,000!"
Xi Siling wrote the price on a sign and held it up.
The guest in Box 3 continued to raise the price, reaching 500,000.
Xi Siling also changed it to 510,000.
Anyway, Xi Siling added 10,000 each time until he finally got 1.01 million.
Ke Xingzhi's eyes widened, wondering if Chief Si Ling had so much money or if Minister Xiong had given so much funding.
Is there anything special about this pink mermaid bead?
Of course...no, Xi Siling just needs to take a picture of an item in the first stage.
As for the question of whether he had money or not, he let Xiong Conghai worry about it. He was not worried at all anyway.
At the end of the first stage, during the intermission, a waiter knocked on the door to ask for Siling and Ke Xingzhi.
The break time is prepared for these distinguished guests who have bought items. They can choose to go to the warehouse to view the treasures they have bought and have the opportunity to visit other items in the warehouse.
This is exactly the opportunity Xi Siling wants.
"Mr. Xi, would you like to check out the items now?"
"Let's go, Xiaoxing."
"Yes, Mr. Department."
Ke Xingzhi suddenly realized it and thought that Commander Si Ling was really smart.
There were three or four waiters along the way, and there were also two bodyguards following, naturally to protect the safety of both the guests and the items.
It’s not far, but there are many checkpoints along the way, and it took a lot of effort to finally reach the warehouse where the auction items are stored.
This place is like an exhibition hall in a museum. It is dim everywhere, but the exhibits are shining brightly.
"This is the pink mermaid pearl you bought, sir, please check it."
Xi Siling pretended to take a look and said, "It is indeed flawless, not bad."
The waiter smiled brightly, "This mermaid pearl has the effect of prolonging life if worn for a long time. It is very good for you to wear it yourself or give it as a gift."
Xi Siling just smiled faintly, and then looked further inside at the second and third stage auction areas, where other guests were already visiting.
"Take me to see some other lots."
The waiter nodded immediately, knowing that most of the customers who chose to come to the warehouse to view the auction items were not satisfied with the description of the auction items in the roster and wanted to see them in person.
"Yes, Mr. Department."
